I'm excited to announce the following launch events for Svend Robinson: A Life in Politics:

Vancouver:
November 15 at 7:00 PM at the Bill Reid Gallery of Northwest Coast Art (639 Hornby Street)

Ottawa:
November 19 at 5:30 PM at D'Arcy McGee's (44 Sparks Street)

 
Toronto:
November 30 at 2:00 PM at Frontier College national headquarters (35 Jackes Avenue)

These should be great events; I'm really looking forward to seeing you all there.

On a personal note, it's truly a privilege to be holding events in these spots. I have a personal connection to each of them. I have been a lifelong fan of Northwest Coast art, Bill Reid in particular, and this outstanding gallery was where my wife and I had our second date. D'Arcy McGee's is a legendary bar among Parliament Hill types. It's just a block away from the Hill itself, and pints there during my university years were an integral part of my political education. Finally, Frontier College will always have a special place in my heart. I consider the work I did for them in 2008 and 2009 as a literacy teacher to be probably the most useful thing I've ever done. They are a great organization that really makes a difference. Fittingly, Robinson is a former employee, too.

Very interesting to learn the connections you have to all three venues. How appropriate!
